So you all have that feeling...you have those days when you wish that you could have a home cooked meal like your mom used to make. I was having one of those days today. I was craving my moms swiss steak,at least i think it's called swiss steak, the one thats smothered in gravy and you can cut it with a fork. YUP that's the one!

Here's my version....

any cheap cut of beef cut into steaks

can of diced tomatoes
1 green pepper, cubed

1 onion, cubed

2 beef boulion pkgs

1 cup water
1 pkg of gravy mix, any kind. I used pork because it was in my cupboard
salt and pepper to taste

Heat up the skillet to med-high and spray pan with oil. Sear the meat on both sides and then add the remaining ingredients. Turn down to low and simmer, covered for 2 to 3 hours.

If you want you can also throw the pot in the oven for 2 to 3 hours at 350 degrees.

I serve it with either potatoes or rice to soak up the delicous gravy!

Well I did finially get the Louis Vuitton cake finished and it turned out fantastic! It took a couple of hours to hand paint the pattern and form the accessories, but it turned out better than I expected! I have another commission for the same cake for another lady for the end of the month.
